Setup, Compatibility & Care
To assemble the urn, identify the square base and the main urn section. Since the urn is shipped in two pieces, carefully slot the top section into the base on a level, stable surface. It is recommended to assemble the unit at its final destination to avoid unnecessary heavy lifting.
For care, the sandstone finish can be wiped down with a soft brush or a damp cloth to remove dirt or debris. Avoid using high-pressure power washers, which may erode the textured finish over time. During harsh winter months, consider moving the urn to a sheltered area or covering it to prevent freeze-thaw damage that can affect porous stone materials.
